While the increase in residential units sold was 70%, the average price was down approximately 8.39%. However the sales to list price only dropped by 1% indicating that the homes that did sell in April were on average, lower priced to begin with than those which sold in March. Another good market indicator is that the average days on market for the homes that sold decreased from 160 in March to 137 in April.
Helena is a great place to live and work. It has much to offer in the way of recreation, shopping and dining...a place where neighbors get to know one another and there is a real sense of community.
It is a great time to buy for those looking to move up, downsize and for first time homebuyers-- defined as anyone who has not owned a home in the last 3 years and investors. Interest rates are at historic lows and there are many homes on the market priced really well. Call me to find out how you can benefit from a move in this market. Also give me a call for information about the federal tax incentive of up to $8000 for first time buyers and how you can take advantage of it now.

Birmingham Alabama MLS Residential home sales for the month of April 2009 increased over those for March 2009. The 1096 residences sold represented an approximate increase of 4.88 % over the number sold in March. However, sales for April 2009 were down approximately 22.82 % from those of April 2008. In 2008 there was only a .7% increase in home sales from March to April. * So, even though our numbers are down from last year, the increase from March to April this year is almost 7 times that of March to April of 2008. Unfortunately, not all agents get their listings updated in a timely manner. It is still early in the month and we will see more April sales being recorded as the days pass.

Southlake Cove is a charming community in Shelby County located within the city limits of Hoover. It was built around Rutherford Lake and is a part of a larger development, Southlake. The development is conveniently located close to shopping, dining and entertainment near I65 less than 10 miles from UAB and major medical facilities.
Most homes in Southlake Cove were built in the early to mid 1990s and many have been updated. The community is unique for its location in that it offers the lake with fishing and also allows pontoon boats. Many of the nearby close-in communities with lakes do not allow motorized boats, if any boats at all.
The homes in Southlake Cove are spacious, single family residences built on relatively small lots that appeal to persons who want a large home without a large yard to maintain. The floor plans are typically conducive to entertaining. Many of the homes are lakefront and have piers along with wonderful lake views 
Zoned for Hoover schools, Southlake Cove is a wonderful place to make your next home.
If you have any questions about Southlake Cove, Hoover, the Birmingham or Shelby County area give me a call. I'll be happy to answer them.

Hi! Even though this is the "About me" section, as your realtor, I believe it is all about you. I make it my business to listen to your needs and wants when it comes to finding your dream home or selling the home you currently own. I have a degree in Business with a major in Marketing from the University of Alabama. I use not only my education, but knowledge gained through many years of working and volunteering in the community to market homes as well as locate the right home for my buyers. As the mother of two young adult sons, I understand the many demands that are placed on the time that working adults have today. Real Estate is my sole source of income and one that is very dependent on referrals. It is my goal to provide such good service to you, that you will want to give my name and telephone number to anyone you hear mention that they are thinking of buying or selling a home. I'm not satisfied until my clients are happy. I believe it takes all the parties involved working together to create the best possible home buying or selling experience. That's why my motto is "Partnering with You...Making Dreams Come True!
.
I love negotiating and believe it is one of the strengths I offer to both buyers and sellers. I will go to bat for my clients to get the best possible deal I can for them! I really enjoy showing homes and am currently a candidate for ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) certification. I have a degree in Business from the University of Alabama with a major in Marketing. I am a full time Realtor, currently a member of the National Association of Realtors, Alabama Association of Realtors, and Birmingham Association of Realtors and REBAC
